American Literature – American Poetry – Emily Dickinson
< < < So bashful when I spied her
Some, too fragile for winter winds > > >

---

So proud she was to die

---

So proud she was to die

   It made us all ashamed

That what we cherished, so unknown

   To her desire seemed.

---

So satisfied to go

   Where none of us should be,

Immediately, that anguish stooped

   Almost to jealousy.
